. . bedtimes. Boys need to be fresh when they arrive for school – a good night’s sleep is essential. Please co-operate by ensuring that during the term time, boys are in bed and asleep by an early hour. As a guide, we consider that Shell boys should be in bed no later than 7.30pm; Form 2, 7.45pm; Form 3, 8.00pm; Remove, 8.30pm and Form 5, 9.00pm.
We are not trying to usurp parental responsibility in this matter, and we know how difficult it can be to get a reluctant child off to bed. But remember, at school we see a side of the boys that you do not. We know if a boy has had a late or disturbed night. It is unfair on the boy, and places him at a disadvantage with his peers.
A boy who has had a disturbed night, whether through illness or for any other reason, cannot work properly and should be kept at home. Parents should notify the Office before 8.15am or leave a message on the form teacher’s voicemail at the time and a note of explanation should be sent in to the form teacher on his return – see Attendance. But please exercise common sense over this; we don’t mind in the least if a boy comes in later in the day.
